    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_granularity_locking

    IS locks conflict with X locks, while IX locks conflict with S and X locks. The null lock (NL) is compatible with everything. To lock a node in S (or X), MGL has the transaction lock on all of its ancestors with IS (or IX), so if a transaction locks a node in S (or X), no other transaction can access its ancestors in X (or S and X). This ...
